Trouble’s Wedding Caper (Familiar Legacy) by Jen Talty is a four star novel. When I read about the premise of this book, I was skeptical. I am not a cat lover for sure but it was interesting that this cat, Trouble, is at the heart of this novel and helps his people figure out mysteries. When Annabelle finds Trouble, she knows that he is there to help her and make her life better. She starts seeing Ethan, the sheriff after years of not knowing anything about him. As they try to take care of each other, bad stuff is happening around them and they have to decide to figure things out and revisit their past in order to deal with their past hurts so that they can move forward together.
At first I was skeptical about this book because it starts off with a cat, Trouble, talking about the royal wedding… And for a wedding themed book I can’t say it’s extremely unusual, what with the cat being British and such. Anyway, after that we meet our main character Annabel and the intrigue starts immediately. Each time the story seems to be getting into a bit of normalcy, something happens to throw a wrench into things. Except for the fact that Trouble has his own dialogue, this book reminds me a bit of The Cat Who Series. It was a welcome distraction while I recovered from being ill and I will probably be picking up some more from the Familiar Legacy series.

Trouble’s Wedding Caper (Familiar Legacy Book 8) by Jen Talty is another unique and wonderful story that is a second chance romance/mystery. I enjoy Jen’s books, they are always fun and exciting and hook me from the start and keep me engaged till the end. I just love Trouble who I am sure thinks he is human. He makes me laugh out loud at his antics and his clever mind. If only he could speak. Jen’s characters are always loveable and there are others I just wanted to smack. The plot is clever and wonderfully woven and the writing is told in several POV’s.
Annabel is sassy and independent and left despondent about relationships. She has finally come back home and soon finds herself in a situation that is dangerous and possibly illegal but she has Trouble to watch over her and lead the police in the right direction.
Don’t miss out on a this exciting story that I highly recommend.

Trouble’s Wedding Caper (Familiar Legacy #8) by Jen Talty was a fast pace, fun, entertaining read, that had me hooked.
My first read by this author and for this series, don’t be put off by the number, though this says book eight, it reads as a standalone. I fall right into this story and no point did I feel confused or felt like I was missing something. Nicely balanced and witty, I very much had a good time reading this unique book.
Right away I was pulled into this book, I’m not going to tell you how it opens cause I think it’s a nice little surprise and a fun treat. After that opening we meet Annabel, right away I liked her, and that doesn’t happen very often for me, to actually like a MC right out of the gate. She was fun, witty, and someone I could see wanting to be friends with. A very strong MC, Annabel carried this story, and really made up fro some of the weaker areas.
Overall this book, as I have said, is a super fin read, and you will get hooked right from that unique opening. So please take my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval, that you will have a time reading this quirky rom-com.
I have had the chance to get a bit of a taste of Jen Talty’s work in various anthologies here and there and really have enjoyed each story so it was quite a no-brainer for me when I saw the cute cat detective story pop up on my fee for a quick afternoon read. I was a tad cautious, although open-minded, going in because this is book eight of the Familiar Legacy books. I had absolutely no issues picking up right here though, just discovered a sweet series of shorts that I will get to go back and enjoy in the near future. I will say this isn’t a meaty story. It is what I like to classify as a light and fluffy book, something to break up the serious full series reads maybe, so that would be a note for myself and probably a reason for a four star rating as well for me personally.
In Trouble’s Wedding Caper we follow the feline detective and his caretaker Annabel on quite the mysterious little rendezvous. Annable finds herself at a storage auction and with a unit of unknown items. Even cannier is the previous owner really wants them back. Throw in that the local cop she enlists for help ust happens to be a old friend and crush. What will she do about that? Grab a copy today and dive in to find out for yourself. You won’t be disappointed that you did! Thanks for the great little read Ms. Talty.

Oh man this crazy cat lady was really hooked on this book. The author has a very unique story format and writing style. I really enjoyed the mix of romance and mystery. The whole story just really kept me glued to the book and I couldn’t wait to see what would happen next.
I really found the chemistry between Annabel and Ethan to be sweet. The whole sort of crushing on your best friend’s brother really makes this story realistic. I just love the fact that Trouble plays a big part in this book. A detective cat just adds such a cuteness to the book. I found that the author had a real unique way of bringing in the mystery around the story and characters. I like the idea of the cat helping bring the couple together and helping solve the case. I will definitely be reading more from this author in the future.
I give Trouble’s Wedding Caper (Familiar Legacy Book 8) by Jen Talty, 5 stars.
Trouble, the feline detective, is being taken care of by Annabel in Jupiter, Florida. He is all ready for a vacation and can’t wait. But it turns out she may need his help after all. She purchases a storage unit at an auction, without knowing the contents. But now someone seems to want the stuff back, and is willing to do anything to get it back. Not only that, but Annabel finds out the local cop is an old friend and someone she’s had a crush on since childhood. She is not ready to date again, but there is something about him. Should she try? Can Trouble help solve the storage unit mystery before it’s too late?
I am new to this series and wasn’t sure what to expect. I absolutely loved it! Trouble is fantastic and Annabel and Ethan are too. The story is fun, engaging, and full of romance and mystery. I love that it switches between the two human points of view, then adds in Trouble’s point of view too! This book reminds me of The Cat Who series but with romance thrown in. I read that series as a teenager and it is dear to my heart. That should show you how much I love this book. I cannot wait to read the rest of the books in the series.
If you like romantic cozy mysteries and/or are a cat lover, this book is for you.

Trouble’s Wedding Caper (Familiar Legacy #8) By Jen Talty Rated 4 stars
This is an enjoyable read with some romance and mystery. The characters were fun and outgoing. Each of the MC have come down a hard road. Now that they are both back in the same town a little romance could be in their future. Especially if Rosie has anything to say about it. I zipped right through this with all the interesting side stories. It reads very smoothly. Trouble(cat) is a fun fixture. He figures out how to communicate well with the humans. He is a good add to the story. I enjoyed how he tried to get his point across.
This is my first book by this author. I throughly enjoyed meeting the characters and that cat! I have not read any others in the series so this can be read as a stand alone. I recommend this story if you are looking for a fun flirty read with a mystery.
Trouble’s Wedding Caper (Familiar Legacy Book 8) by Jen Talty
5 Stars
Ok so this was my first read by this author and I thought it was fantastic, I so loved taking a break from some of the heavier books I’ve been reading and take on one that did have its serious points but was just simply a lot of fun to read. It had a steady and smooth flow, just enough drama and mystery to keep me stuck to the pages and then enough POV’s so that I always knew what every character was thinking.
I will with no doubt be going and looking through what else this author has available because her writing style suited me perfectly and oh how I wish there were more with Trouble, I just loved this whole concept…
Many Thanks to this author for a fantastical read!!

Trouble’s Wedding Caper by Jen Talty a five-star read that will make you chuckle. This is the eight novel in the Familiar legacy series but you don’t need to have read them all, I have only read number two and five and now eight and I have loved them all, I am sure one day I will get to read them in order but until them I will just enjoy them as I fancy them. You will chuckle reading this one, as well as be kept guessing, Trouble will just make you want to wish he was real as who wouldn’t want a cat that supreme. The story is told from many perspectives so that can get a little confusing but the author deals well and keeps it interesting and clear.

This is my first book by this author, I enjoyed it from beginning to end. This is a romance-suspense story that took me on a journey of twists and turns that left me turning pages. My favorite character, is Trouble who is a cat. I also enjoyed how the author told parts of the story in his POV. Annabel and Ethan are also great characters and I loved their chemistry. Will they solve the wedding mystery and get their HEA at the same time? I highly recommend this fun, engaging book. Review by @bjwagner

Trouble’s Wedding Caper (Familiar Legacy Book 8) By: Jen Talty 5 out of 5 stars
The story Trouble’s Wedding Caper (Familiar Legacy Book 8) by Jen Talty is a wonderful book that I loved reading. It has both mystery and romance. It hooked me in right from the beginning and I didn’t want to put it down until I had read the final page. I loved reading about the characters of Annabel Wilder and Sheriff Ethan Farris. Annabel is a woman who is beautiful and independent. She is a treasure hunter and has found wonderful things when she bids and wins a storage unit. She soon finds herself caught up in an investigation headed by Ethan. Ethan shows himself to be protective of Annabel. Danger follows the investigation into a rash of wedding burglaries. Will Ethan be able to solve the burglaries? How much danger is Annabel in? Will Trouble, the black cat, help Ethan with his investigation? There is an attraction between Annabel and Ethan. Will they act on their feelings for each other? Read this book to find out. This is a story that at times had me wondering what was going to happen next. I felt like I was putting together a puzzle in order to find out the guilty one. I felt a connection with both Annabel and Ethan and grew to care about them with each chapter that I read. I wanted them to find happiness. I also loved the character of Trouble. His quick thinking and wit brought a smile to my face. Don’t miss out on a wonderful story that has amazing characters. I would highly recommend reading it.
